which_o without_o a_o exact_a scrutiny_n can_v easy_o be_v discover_v for_o oft_o time_n a_o horse_n have_v get_v a_o strain_n for_o which_o he_o be_v present_o turn_v to_o grass_n where_o

howbeit_o upon_o his_o first_o ride_v it_o may_v not_o appear_v you_o have_v therefore_o three_o way_n whereby_o to_o find_v our_o his_o lameness_n lameness_n three_o way_n to_o find_v out_o lameness_n in_o what_o joint_n limb_n or_o member_n of_o the_o body_n soever_o it_o lie_v 1_o the_o first_o way_n be_v to_o take_v he_o out_o of_o the_o stable_a and_o to_o cause_v he_o to_o be_v turn_v at_o the_o halter_n end_n on_o either_o hand_n sudden_o and_o swift_o upon_o as_o hard_a a_o way_n as_o you_o can_v pick_v out_o and_o if_o he_o have_v any_o ache_n wrench_v or_o grief_n in_o his_o forepart_n it_o will_v appear_v for_o that_o when_o he_o shall_v turn_v upon_o that_o hand_n in_o which_o the_o grief_n be_v you_o shall_v perceive_v he_o to_o favour_v that_o leg_n and_o so_o likewise_o run_v both_o towards_o you_o and_o from_o you_o especial_o down_o a_o little_a yield_a hill_n and_o if_o he_o have_v any_o â—â—perfection_n he_o will_v soon_o show_v it_o for_o that_o he_o will_v favour_v that_o leggeâ—herein_o â—herein_z the_o grief_n reside_v but_o if_o you_o be_v not_o able_a to_o find_v out_o his_o lameness_n this_o way_n 2_o then_o your_o second_o way_n must_v be_v for_o you_o to_o take_v his_o back_n and_o to_o ride_v he_o out_o a_o good_a round_a troth_n or_o pace_v a_o full_a hour_n or_o so_o long_a until_o such_o time_n as_o you_o have_v thorough_o heat_v he_o than_o set_v he_o up_o and_o let_v he_o stand_v quiet_a two_o or_o three_o hour_n and_o then_o either_o take_v his_o back_n again_o or_o else_o turn_v he_o at_o the_o halter_n end_n as_o before_o and_o by_o thus_o do_v you_o may_v discover_v the_o least_o grief_n that_o may_v be_v in_o he_o especial_o when_o you_o thus_o stir_v he_o if_o it_o be_v do_v upon_o stony_a or_o hard_a ground_n for_o than_o he_o can_v neither_o will_n or_o choose_v but_o either_o to_o favour_v the_o member_n grieve_v or_o else_o to_o halt_a right_n down_o 3_o a_o three_o way_n we_o have_v and_o that_o be_v to_o know_v whether_o the_o grief_n do_v proceed_v from_o a_o hot_a or_o cold_a cause_n for_o if_o it_o proceed_v from_o a_o hot_a cause_n then_o will_v the_o horse_n halt_a most_o when_o he_o be_v hot_a and_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o his_o travel_n but_o if_o it_o be_v of_o a_o cold_a cause_n then_o will_v he_o halt_a lest_o whilst_o he_o be_v hot_a and_o most_o ride_v and_o travel_v and_o most_o at_o his_o first_o set_v forth_o whilst_o he_o be_v cold_a and_o thus_o much_o for_o lameness_n and_o halt_v before_o now_o you_o perceive_v your_o horse_n to_o halt_a and_o that_o you_o be_v assure_v that_o his_o lameness_n be_v not_o before_o then_o may_v you_o be_v confident_a it_o must_v be_v behind_o which_o be_v so_o the_o grief_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v either_o in_o the_o foot_n or_o in_o the_o nether_a joint_n in_o the_o pastern_a or_o in_o the_o leg_n in_o the_o ham_n or_o in_o the_o hough_o in_o the_o stifle_a place_n or_o joint_n or_o in_o the_o hip_n if_o the_o grief_n be_v

for_o that_o the_o sign_n be_v the_o very_a same_o if_o it_o be_v in_o the_o bend_n of_o the_o ham_n you_o may_v then_o easy_o know_v it_o to_o be_v a_o plain_a selander_n if_o it_o be_v in_o the_o

then_o will_v the_o swell_a easy_o appear_v but_o you_o shall_v perceive_v it_o either_o by_o the_o stiffness_n of_o the_o joint_n or_o else_o you_o shall_v find_v the_o place_n to_o be_v hot_a and_o

the_o hip_n which_o be_v upon_o the_o side_n of_o the_o buttock_n and_o if_o the_o hurt_n or_o wrench_v be_v new_o take_v you_o shall_v easy_o know_v it_o in_o that_o the_o horse_n will_v go_v side-long_a like_o a_o crab_n not_o be_v able_a so_o well_o to_o follow_v with_o the_o grieve_a leg_n as_o he_o can_v do_v with_o the_o other_o notwithstanding_o if_o it_o be_v a_o hurt_n take_v long_o before_o you_o shall_v perceive_v the_o hip_n to_o be_v fall_v low_a than_o the_o other_o and_o the_o flesh_n to_o shrink_v you_o may_v also_o perceive_v it_o the_o better_a as_o by_o go_v up_o
